The Ahmedabad municipal administration has inaugurated three new police stations at Motera, Vastral and Hanspura, raising the city's police network to 52 stations.
The Ahmedabad civic authorities announced the opening of three additional police stations in the city’s rapidly expanding suburbs of Motera, Vastral and Hanspura. The new facilities are part of a broader effort to strengthen law‑and‑order infrastructure in response to rising population density and urban development.
Each station is equipped with modern communication systems and a dedicated team of officers to handle local policing, traffic management and community outreach. Officials said the expansion will improve response times and enable more effective crime prevention in the newly added jurisdictions.
With the three additions, Ahmedabad now operates a total of 52 police stations, the highest count among Gujarat’s major cities. The municipal commissioner highlighted that the move aligns with the state’s goal of enhancing public safety ahead of upcoming civic projects and large‑scale events.
Local residents expressed optimism that the new stations will bring a stronger police presence to their neighborhoods, potentially curbing petty crimes and improving overall civic confidence.
